Bulls back to defending at a high level, but will Zach LaVine join in?

The Bulls are back to being a top defense in the league the last 11 games and have done so with Zach LaVine sidelined. Will the two-time All-Star fall in line when he’s healthy enough to return? That remained to be seen.

It was a game that had loss written all over it back in November.

The second night of a back-to-back, and shots not falling early on? That Bulls roster would have had the tent packed away and the car running by halftime.

That Bulls roster, however, is no longer this Bulls roster.
